Colorado at Kansas State -10 O/U 149.5
Recommendation: Kansas State
Colorado is coming off a big 89-76 upset win at home over Missouri. The Buffs got 36 points from guard Alec Burks and easily solved the Tigers pressure defense which led to plenty of good looks. They will face a much tougher task tonight on the road, however, as Kansas State comes in off a loss at Oklahoma State. The Wildcats will be fired up for their conference opener and unlike Missouri, KSU will provide some resistance on the defensive end of the court. Colorado obviously wants to get out transition, but I expect K-State to force the Buffs to score in the half court. The Wildcats have had problems of their own this year on offense, but they should be able to exploit Colorado's soft defense and tendency to play poorly away from home. I like the spot an expect KSU to cruise to victory.
